The pencil will not fit if you try to use one that is the square root of (92 + 122) in length ... the volume of the pencil will draw up the surfaces of the envelope, reducing the lengths of the two legs of that right triangle just enough that you will not have the pencil of that length entirely "in" the envelope.
